Hi,
I have completed my 2 yrs Masters in IT from Australia. I have shown 12 months experience in Linux. As a recent graduate I seek seek recent work experience exemption. I passed in July 2009 and applied for assessment on 4th December 2009.

I got assessment from ACS today ..it says


Your skills have been assessed to be suitable for migrationn under 2231-79(ICT recent graduate) of ASCO code,being the skilled occupation indicated that you intend to nominate in a General Skilled Migration Application.

Based on the provided certified documentation it is the opinion of the ACS that the applicant has 12 month experience in Linux.

Now it seem to me I got positive responce from ACS ! but confused why they say 2231-79(ICT recent graduate) intead of 2231-79(Linux) according to

http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/gener...-in-demand.htm


Is there anyone who had similar status like me ? or got similar assessment ?

Please help .

Thanks.

to get 2231-79(Linux) you need to have atleast 4 years of work experience with 1 year in Linux. In your case ACS has assesed you as recent graduate hence the code.
